Nothing is harder on
hydraulic hose than
the constant abrasion
it takes day after day.
Rubbed against metal
or other hose, most
hydraulic hoses – even
ones with spring guards
or nylon sleeving – can’t
take the punishment.
And you shouldn’t
have to take the high
cost of frequent hose
replacements.
MegaTuff hydraulic
hoses take the load
off your hose and
your wallet.
In I.D.s from 3/8-inch to 2-inches in
spiral-wire construction and 1/4-inch
to 1-inch in wire-braid construction,
MegaTuff hoses offer a revolutionary,
hassle-free solution to the problem
of abrasion. Even in the most rugged
environments such as mining,
injection molding, rock quarries or
construction, they outperform any
other hose available.
Built Mega-ToughWhen you look at the industry, it’s
hard to tell one hose from another.
But take another look. MegaTuff
hoses even feel different. Thanks
to a special cover construction
and compounding that uses high-
performance engineered plastics
in an innovative manufacturing
process, MegaTuff hoses are
exceptionally abrasion resistant.
And the specially bonded cover
stays put. It won’t peel like some
competitive hoses do. Even with all
this extra protection, MegaTuff hoses
are flexible and maintain minimum
bend radius performance.
Stands Up to Extended UseIn internationally recognized ISO
6945 performance tests, MegaTuff
hoses ran up to one million impulse
cycles without failure. That’s more
than three hundred times longer
than standard rubber-covered hose.
Extended hose life means less
downtime, lower maintenance and
best of all, significant cost savings.

Eliminates the Need to Protect HosesUnlike other hydraulic hose,
MegaTuff hoses stand alone,
needing neither spring guards nor
nylon sleeving – accessories that
can hide hose damage until it’s
too late. Unloading these extras
translates into significant cost
savings. And don’t worry about
bundling MegaTuff hoses.
They’ll still last longer than
any other hose.
MegaTuff Hose Saves MoneyYou can save money by using
MegaTuff hydraulic hose instead
of standard rubber-covered hose
with nylon sleeving. Replace spring
guard-covered assemblies and
save even more!
If cut or gouged, hose cover on competitive product can peel away, exposing the hose to damage and failure.
